Issue with Cloud Backups after Reinstalling Nextcloud in ix-applications

Hello everyone,

I used to have Nextcloud installed on TrueNAS and had different folders, such as the data folder, organized into custom datasets I created. This setup made it easy to back up my Nextcloud data to the cloud using TrueNAS’ Cloud Sync Tasks or other backup solutions.

Recently, I reinstalled Nextcloud, but this time I used the dataset provided by TrueNAS under ix-applications. Since then, I’ve been unable to back up any of my Nextcloud data to the cloud or efficiently set up any Cloud Sync or replication tasks.

The documentation hasn’t been very helpful on this, and I’m wondering how backups are supposed to work with this new setup using ix-applications. It seems I don’t have the same flexibility as before, and the permissions are quite restrictive when trying to access data outside of the applications dataset.

Does anyone know how I can back up the Nextcloud dataset (stored in ix-applications), or if there’s a recommended way to manage backups in this configuration? Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
